Renesse (Zeeuws: Renisse) is a village in the Dutch province of Zeeland. It is a part of the municipality of Schouwen-Duiveland, and lies about 28 km west of Hellevoetsluis.
Renesse is a popular tourist resort with zero-fare bus services in the area (in summer only).
The village was first mentioned in 1244 as Rietnesse, and is a combination of headland and reed. Renesse is a circular church village near the dunes. In 1229, Floris V, Count of Holland donated the land to Costijn van Zierikzee who built a castle near the village.
Moermond Castle was built in 1229, but destroyed in 1297. Before 1339, a new smaller castle was built, but became derelict. The gate house of around 1400 was converted in a summer residence in 1513 which became the basis of the current castle. It was severely damaged during the North Sea flood of 1953. Between 1958 and 1960, it was restored and the walls around the castle were rebuilt with three towers.
The Dutch Reformed church is a single-aisled church. The tower dates from the early 15th century and has never been completed. The choir was rebuilt in 1916 and remnants of the predecessor of around 1300 were discovered. In 1924, a school was attached...
